An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for accessing enterprise
information system (EIS) resources in a service component architecture
(SCA) for an integration server by selectively binding a service import
to a low-level EIS resource adapter (RA) resource of an EIS service
provider in response to a declarative binding definition, selectively
binding a service import to an EIS service of the EIS service provider in
response to a declarative binding definition, and selectively binding a
service import to one or more EIS resources through an EIS service
mapping configured to transform a service request from the service
component client to satisfy an interface pattern of the EIS service
provider. By allowing access to resources at different levels and
allowing mappings of resources, the requirements of service clients can
be met.
